Asked if there were warning signs flashing over fighting inferior opponents, Ingle said: “Realistically if you asked me who is in Kell’s league, I’d say the only fighters would be Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather. Your Danny Garcia, your (Robert) Guerrero, your Amir Khan, I don’t think they are in Kell’s league. Kell can only fight who is put in front of him. Who is out there to beat him?

“He is at that level where he needs to cash in. He needs to give the boxing public what they want. Kell would fight Pacquiao tomorrow.

“Bizier has been beat by (former Brook victim) Jo Jo Dan in close fights, he can punch, he is a bigger puncher than Jo Jo Dan, but the thing is Kell is levels above everybody else.”

Ingle said his team respected the IBF’s iron-ruling on mandatories. “Kell has strived all his career to become a world champion and he got his chance for the IBF title purely because of his mandatory situation. The IBF enforces a mandatory, not like the wBC or WBA, where they run the contenders around. He might never have got his chance if he wasn’t not been in the IBF rankings and forced the champion (Shawn Porter) to fight Kell.

“I’d like to see him with Timothy Bradley, Pacquiao. Kell is 30 years old now, he’s been boxing for 20 years, he needs a big fight.”
